Hi, just wondering what you guys think of this recently done area at the back of the chimney. The red tiles are an existing roof, the grey ones are a new roof just done next door. Doesn't seem to be any tiles behind the chimney, just flashing to fill the void. Also seems to have placed a tiny piece of tile underneath to level them. Thanks.

Is it leaking? If ots juat the middle tile, i cant see any rain entering the building..
 
Can't tell much from those pics.. Need one from the back
Thank you for your reply, it has appeased me a little actually as I was expecting 'it shouldn't be done like that!' replies. I only have pics from this angle at the moment, but I'm glad that, I assume, nothing stands out as being incorrect.

Thanks for replying. It doesn't leak I was just concerned that, with it being a new roof it might not be common practice to do it this way. On similar houses nearby there is a row of tiles at the back of the chimney and the flashing goes underneath. Whereas here the tile (perhaps a tile and a half) are missing with the flashing on top covering the void. I assume it's normal to do it either way?
